We paired up a bluetooth keyboard and mouse for them (Android supports Bluetooth and usb mice) and they are good to go.

If your school is implimenting the BYOD policy, this may be a good tablet for that.
Up until now they haven't had to bring devices to school. I know that last year their class worked on netbooks sometimes, but the school provided those. We got the girls new iTouches earlier this summer so I don't think they need tablets as well and they do have a desktop computer they share. I was happy to see that the 10" had bluetooth, though, so pairing it with a keyboard is possible.

So many decisions!
